Recovery. Water treatment is often viewed as a compliance cost. At Coral Innovations, we see it differently. Many contaminated water streams contain materials that should not simply be removed and discarded. Metals, phosphorus, oils, and organics can create regulatory problems, but they can also represent recoverable value. The challenge is finding a practical way to capture them. That is where Coral Innovations’ media platform fits. Targeted Capture Without Overcomplicating

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is one of the most visible water features in the United States. It also has a very practical water quality problem. Algae keeps coming back. The issue is not simply cosmetic. The pool is shallow. It sits in full sun. It warms quickly. It has slow-moving recirculated water. Those are ideal conditions for algae and cyanobacteria growth. Traditional responses often focus on killing or removing algae after it appears. That can help in the shor

In corn and soybean processing, centrifuges play a crucial role in separating oils from solids and liquids. Yet, even the best centrifuges leave behind dissolved, emulsified, and residual oils that reduce overall product recovery and affect wastewater quality. Coralyte® Oils offers a polishing step designed to capture these remaining oils. This technology helps processors increase oil recovery, improve discharge water quality, and reduce operating losses, supporting more sust

Whether it occurs at an industrial facility, a stormwater pond, a transportation yard, a marina, or an active construction site, an oil spill can quickly become an environmental and operational challenge. Traditional spill response methods often generate large volumes of contaminated absorbent waste that must be collected, transported, and disposed of after a single use. While these products can remove oil from the environment, they frequently transfer the problem from the wa

Construction sites are under increasing pressure to protect nearby waterways from pollutants carried by stormwater runoff. While sediment control remains the foundation of most Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs), many projects continue to struggle with elevated metals concentrations that can trigger permit exceedances and regulatory scrutiny. As environmental regulations become more stringent, site operators need practical solutions that address dissolved metals d

Water challenges in urban areas like Chicago demand practical, effective solutions. Great Lakes RENEW and Coral Innovations are working together to address these challenges by developing new approaches to water management and sustainability. Their collaboration, recently highlighted in Crain's Chicago Business, shows how nonprofit organizations and innovative companies can join forces to improve water systems and benefit communities. Water treatment facility in Chicago with a

How Coral Innovations Media Works: Selective Water Treatment Through Engineered Nanotechnology Our proprietary treatment media combines a highly porous, three-dimensional sponge substrate with engineered nanomaterials permanently anchored throughout the structure. As water flows freely through interconnected pores, contaminants come into direct contact with accessible active sites distributed across the entire media surface. This design enables the selective capture of a wide
